Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[UpstateVol613]

I think it will be Ingram or Gilbert. Friday is real possibility, no later than Monday. They want a new coach in place by first week of February. I’m hearing they are willing to pay 5.5-8 million per year around 5-6 years for the right guy. They want a sitting HC w power 5 experience. If they get to a certain place then I believe Steele will get the job but it won’t be for lack of trying. I believe they will get their guy if the pay i hear is correct. They can’t afford any embarrassment and they understand that.
From Bob

WTF...are we supposed to be happy “they tried”? There is no way to spin it if you end up on Steele it is an absolute embarrassment.

 

[Weezer]

SIAP but who’s Bob?

battery operated...wait, wrong bob.

For the flight tracking posts - Kiffin built a very nice abode in Boca Raton when he was with FAU. As of the spring of last year he did not have a home in Oxford, he was in rental accommodations. So let's fuel some rumors. K-town to B'ham to Palm Beach means Ingram/Kiffin.

Need to add to my posting. Dare we guess who is flying the plane?

Calling AV, over...

Heard Kentucky just launched an internal investigation of their basketball program following tonight’s loss.

Its fun to do this, but if ut learned their lesson from the last coaching search they have the tail number blocked and we will never know.

Most “important” people have everything blocked. I would imagine they avoid Knoxville as much as possible too. No one’s walking through TAC Air until they land right before a press conference.

It sure is fun to speculate though.

I think she's very smart. A master manipulator.

Killing a top 10 all time football program is not smart.

 

[reeceb73]

Looking at it on flight aware, its not coming back to Knoxville. It leaves out for Palm Beach at noon tomorrow from B Ham

@Atlanta VOL profile says he is from west palm beach. #mindblown

 

[KB5252]

If they are speed-hiring the AD then they are going to hurry on the coach.

If they were going to name Steele as HC I don't think they would be in a rush to get the AD this week. There's no reason.

But there is, they have to change the narrative, a long drawn out search for both positions. Have to get in front. The speed may have nothing to do with where we're going.

 

[volbeast33]

How many examples you basing this on?

Everyone I have seen..... I have asked several times when this has worked..... the only person gave me ole miss, penn state... and Baylor when all three of schools fought it.... lied about it.... and tried everything they could to get out of it...... do you have examples of it working?

He did buy a house on Pickwick Lake right on the TN line last year, too.

 

[sona]

He's mature now.....its a retirement home

With strippers, and jets skis! Didn't know until tonight that they loaned him 2m for a house and he didn't have to pay it back apparently.

Another poster in that same thread on 247 said he heard from a good source they’re going all in on Bob Stoops. TIFWIW

So essentially, what Bob is saying is....it's gonna be Steele.

They suck.

 

[Headvol]

That motherfuqqa could kick a field goal.

He damn sure wouldn’t have hit Cody in the elbow

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Big fan of josh.

But. He can STFU.

A little tip for people wanting to defend UT right now. Just say, ‘Penn State covered up child rape.’ We have done NOTHING equivalent to that. We. Will. Be. Fine.

Really puts it into perspective. Tho there wasn’t a transfer portal back then

 

[butchna]

By tomorrow, we’re going to find out they actually hired an AD on Tuesday.

On a Tuesday...in November.

 

[jave36]

Imagine quitting being a hip thing. That’s what participation trophy has gotten us. Quitting is not only normal, it’s the IT thing to do

Dude, if your company is going down in flames, you wouldn't look for employment elsewhere? This is not taking their ball and going home, this is making a logical decision about what's best for their future. Leaving does not equal quitting.

Another in that same thread on 247 said he heard from a good source they’re going all in on Bob Stoops.

We all know that ain’t happening. Especially with his brother at KY

Eh, it was already on life support to weak to fight. She just held the pillow over it's face.

Ask him what he wants....give everything he asks for and then some.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

I’ve heard he may be back on campus lol

We could always hire Freeze for revival !!

Yeah. As far as not using Knox though, im not sure what other airport they would use. But I agree they're not going to let anyone know until they want them to know.
